Interestingly, from a Cornish perspective, is the consensus that the UK political system is too over-centralised and that there should be significant devolution of power away from Westminster to local, accountable bodies. Step up the Cornish Constitutional Convention and their new document: The Next Push (pdf)

“By adding comments and their own input online, the Unspoken Constitution will become a true people’s constitution involving the public in an exciting and original way. We’ve already made a couple of changes of our own – for example the rule that no Act of Parliament can receive Royal Assent until a member of the royal household says so in Norman French. Events over the past month alone have included plenty more material for people to insert.”

The Director of Democratic Audit Stuart Wilks-Heeg added:

“The aim of the Unspoken Constitution has been to highlight in a mischievous way the flaws in our system and act as a catalyst for wider public debate. In inviting the public to add their own comments, I see no better, and no more democratic, way to stimulate the discussion we intended.”
